1. Il Pizzico

Il Pizzico features Italian cuisine offering fresh locally sourced ingredients prepared using time honored Italian guidelines
Reviewed By gjkNY - New York
We stopped by on a Thurs night. We didnt have a reservation so we decided to just order an appetizer and wine instead. We order the Grilled eggplant bundles filled with smoked mozzarella and ricotta and tomato sauce. Delicious! The white wine was Italian and unknown to us but it was very good- crisp and refreshing. Il Pizzico offers a full menu with a nice variety of pasta, meet and fish selection. They also have a nice wine, beer and cocktail menu. The servers are all very friendly and attentive.

I have followed TripAdvisor recommendations dozens of times all over the US and have only felt that they were wrong three times, and this was one of those times. My wife had beef shish-kabobs, which she ordered medium, but they were overcooked. I ordered lamb shish-kabobs medium and mine were not only overcooked but the flavor was terrible so I was unable to eat all of them. We ordered from the children’s menu chicken nuggets and fries for our grandkids, and their food was fine. In fact, my four year old grandson gave me a chicken nugget and a few fries and I enjoyed that. I will probably never go back but if I do I may order chicken nuggets for myself.

I visited Kryspy Kreme Doughnuts because I loved it! Best when a dozen of doughnuts were half prized! Even though the quality of the donuts were great!!! I had to wait because they were preparing the new hot donuts!!! Yummy!!! The store was full however the flow of boxes full of donuts was amazing.
I simply love Kryspy Kreme!!!

Spectacular, authentic Greek Cuisine ! Well appointed and frequented by Greek families celebrating family and special times, this restaurant is a great place to dine. Serving traditional dishes, everything was well prepared and delectable. Grilled Squid and Lamb Chops are our current favorite Greek dishes and we were not disappointed. As a starter is is difficult not to go with the flaming cheese, Saganaki. The leg of lamb, moussaka, and grape leaves were all prepared with an extra touch and were as tasty as we hoped. Our party of six was served promptly and with elegance. For dessert we enjoyed the rice pudding, coffees and dessert wine. While a bit pricey, it was a most enjoyable experience.
5. Coastal Flats

GAR's favorite beach house serving coastal and classic food making every day a vacation. Flip Flops, optional.

Coastal flats has delicious food! Their bread is amazing and food is consistently good. My husband and I went for dinner on Friday at 8pm and it was slammed. Our meal was tasty and the service was prompt, maybe too prompt. We felt very rushed and hurried out of the restaurant. I understand it was a busy night but by 9pm when we had finished there were very few people waiting and it felt unnecessary to have rushed us.
6. Clyde's Tower Oaks Lodge
Overall Ratings
4 based on 856 reviews
Tucked away in a 22-acre nature preserve just fifteen minutes from Georgetown, Tower Oaks Lodge has the look and feel of an authentic Adirondack lodge. Divided into four dining rooms, the Lodge contains a vast collection of art and artifacts such as vintage canoes and row boats, and antique saddles and trophies. Chef Jeffery Eng, formerly of 1789 Restaurant, presides over the kitchen team featuring a menu of great American saloon-style food. The Lodge offers the freshest seafood, locally-grown seasonal vegetables, pastas, and salads, as well as Clyde's classics such as cheeseburgers and chili.

On the positive side - Clyde's Tower Oaks is a very beautiful place - decor is fantastic, great ambiance. Unfortunately, we do not go to restaurants for decor or art, we have National Gallery of Art just down the street. We go to restaurants for food and value.
Clyde's food is a very solid average - nothing super special - yet, pricing is way out. I do not think we should have paid so much $$ for food quality and quantity at Clyde's.
This place is good for business entertaining when food quality and value are less important. As a family/private eating place - way too expensive.

Except for 6 more restaurants, we had eaten in the top 20 restaurants in Gaithersburg (per ratings of Tripadvisor reviewers). Since this restaurant is one of the remaining 6 restaurants, my friend and I decided to eat here today, February 4, 2018.
The entire building has the restaurant and Bar/Beer house. The latter is located at the Ground Floor while more seating areas are on the second floor as well as the kitchen. We were greeted by smiling staff as we entered the building.
We ordered fried calamaris for our appetizers, Paella and Ahi Tuna dish for our entrees and beverages.The total of our bill is $72 that includes tips.
Our server named, Nathan is excellent, always checking on us and asking about our needs. The other staff members were helpful and nice.The restaurant is modern and clean.
OUR FOODS: I did not know that they are Cajun-based and thus are all spicy for my taste buds. The fried calamaris have hot peppers and thus after 4 bites, I stopped eating them. My Paella has all the proper ingredients such as rice, shrimps, chicken, beef, clams, tomatoes, etc. However, it is very spicy as well.
To remove the spicy taste in my mouth, we ordered the brownie with ice cream. They helped remove the spicy taste in my mouth!
We shall not go back to this restaurant because of their spicy foods. Had we liked spicy foods, we would definitely go back and dined at this restaurants due to reasons mentioned above. Do dine here if you like spicy foods!

This was a return visit with out of town friends. We loved the warm bread and dipping oil. The salads were fresh and sized right. My wife and I enjoyed our veal piccia and marsla, respectively. Maria, our waitress was happy to substitute angel hair pasta for spaghetti in my order. The house chianti was a good complement to our meal. Our friends enjoyed their penne con broccoli. The mini cannolies which came with the specials were taken home to be enjoyed later. Maria is to be commended for being so accommodating in all our requests.
The grille was quiet when first seated but as it filled up it became noisy. Good value and many choices.

We took two of our (adult) grandchildren for lunch today. As usual the food and service were good. Interestingly, they gave our granddaughter a questionnaire to rate various aspects of her dining experience. It impressed me that they are "on the ball" with trying to make sure their standards are being met.
